1862 July 20 Fauquier County, Va.

[from the diary of Anne Madison Willis Ambler]

Sunday, July 20, 1862

Brother Charles preached today & they all
went but Mother & I.  Mother's foot is
still stiff & she cannot wear her shoe.
I staid with Jacque--who looks
very badly--The calomel makes him
sick-
- Tried to read but Jacque and Daisy
took up more than half my
attention.  Tom went to church
with Fannie

[as transcribed in 1972  by her granddaugther Anne Madison Wright Baylor]
